Railway Building In 1887.

Considering the inclement weather
during the first quarter of this year, the
progress of track laying has been very
great. The Rail,cay Age reports that
IO40 miles of new main track on forty
nine different lines. in twenty-five
Sia.ea and Territories, were laid dur.
ing the first three months of 1887. On
this basis total construction Of s. 900 to
10000 miles would seem probable in
1887, were it not, the above journal
says, for the general ainty rela-
tive to the operation of the Interstate
Commerce law. The mileage laid in the
period under review is the largest ever
laid in that time with one excep-
tion. This was in 1882 when the
total mileage built exceedei 1880
miles. The bulk of The track laid was
projected previous to the enactment
of the law above mentioned. The next
few months will decide definitely
whether the present year will exceed all
but the one mentioned, or whether The
law will discourage further extensions.
Half of the total mileage laid is to be
credited to Texas and the Indian Terri
tory each of which has built 250 miles.
Kansos has built 100 and California 70
milts. The remainder OF the total is
furnished by numerous extensions
seat tiered throughout the various States.

Church Building.
A COUPLE OF SERMONS.

The weather yesterday wasall thathe
could wish, aud many availed themselves
of the bright sunshine to wend their
ways to the different temples where the
truth is taught. This city is daily
becoming an essentially ohurch.going
place. No seaside attractions are
sufficient to turn aside from the path
those who have divine grace in their
hearts. The greater portion of the peo.
pie who attend churches on the Sabbath
are full of earnest purpose, but it must
be confessed that there are certain
number who 60 because it is now con-
sidered in Loa Angeles the proper thing
to attend church. It is good form, and
people, no matter how worldly, are
always ready to do anything that is
good form. Be that as it may there
are few cities on this continent that
have larger or more constant church
attendance than Los Angeles. One
bright feature of yesterday was the
large amount subscribed by the members
of the Central Baptist congregation for
the purpose of erecting place OF wor'
ship on the corner of Fourth and Main
streets.

LOST OPPORTUNITIES.
Let Him Not Roast Until He Has
Put off the Harness.

Rev. DR.. Stewart, of Des Moines,
Iowa. supplied the pulpit at the First
Presby terian Church last evening. He
is very aged m N, but intellectually he
is full of youth. He took his text from
the goth chapter of the First Book of
Kings, inl which Ahab, the King OF
Israel. by taking counsel of the Lord
and striking at the right time, overcame
the Syrian hosts led by Ben. hadad. The
Israeiites were few and weak, but their
enemies we're many and strong In
their strength the Syrians were arrogant,
and despised the Israelites because they
were weak. In the pride of their
strength they neglected the precautions
which wisdom epjoins on all armies,
caroused and drank aad left themselves
open to their willy foe. The cousc-
ouence of their holding the Israelites in
contempt was their complete overthrow,
not only in their first meeting with
Ahab, but also the next year, when
Ben.hada returned with another great
army to wipe the earth with the chosen
people of God. The lesson the reverend
preacher drew from the overthrow OF
Ben. hadsd was that, however strong we
NAV be ia our own conceit, we should
never despise the object we wish to
overcome. whether that object be an in
fsrior army or q simple and easy en-
terprise which we wish to carry
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-04-25

ont to success. We should always
90 about the work we have to do in
earnest-exeroising vigilance, caution,
prudence, wisdom--having always IN
view thu object wesdesire to accomplish.
We 4 uld always. also. remember that
We si.ould do that which we have to do
l, The right time. We should seize the
.uspicious moment, for opportunities OF
success seldom repeat themselves.
Ben. hadad wasted his time in carousing;
that time was precious, as be learned
afterward, to his sorrow. Ahab, on the
other hand, multiplied many.fold the
strength of his small army by str king
Ben. hadad ut the ausp;cious time. Inc
lesson of every life has a dolefai refrain
running throug h il, the tones o! which oil
resolve themselves into ''it might have
been." When l look back, ! can see
how many opportunities have missed
by not doing what l Should and conii
have done at the right time. II / hnd
tue wealth of all the Vanderb.lts, l
would give it to be forty again.-not
twenty, for that age is paved With pl'-
falls and beset with temptations; but at
forty, the character is set, the mind Is
matured, and experience has taken tine
helm. Ahab obeyed The Lord and oo
served his laws; and in doing this he
showed his wisdom, for he who carries
out the divine laws cannot go wrong
To oppose them is false and irretrleva-
BILE error, both for this life and the life
to come. We may escape from human
law, but the divine law we cannot set
aside. Nor should we wish TO.
for it is bcneficent, it is fruitful,
of all that is coed to us, and cannot
result in injury. The young man who
walks in the light of the Divine COM
mands is in the way to make his career
a success in all things-he assures to
himself life of peace, OF happiness,
and if he be ambitious of worldly success,
the pure, the good, the God.fearlng
life is the one that will in the long run
accomplish that ambition Ben-hadad
relied alone on his strength, and gave
way to drunkenness in the face of the
enemy he despiscd for his weakness. He
was boastful before the crisis came. But
Ahab was humble, and placed his whole
reliance in the Lord. Before the battle,
he sem back answer to the Syrian Gen.
eral, who treated him as already at his
the golden words: 'Letnot him,
that girdeth on hisharness boast hinselfas
ho that tputtethi it off," If young men will
take the lesson of these words to them.

when age comes On them and they are
ready to put of their harness, be able
to truly boast of what they have done.

CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH.
over $4,000 Su ubscribed TO Build
n New Edtftce.

u NCVt EOtHsCCs
The Central Baptist Church, DR.. w.
ii. Pendleton, pastor, is deavoring TO
raise funds for the purpose of buying q
lot and erecting church building ON the
corner of Fourth and Main streets, ad.
joining the Woman's Home. 70 this
end services were held twice yesterday
at No. los North Main street, at which
subscriptions were taken. The people
who were present realized the necessity
of taking immediate action and contrib
uted generously 10 the fund, and during
the two services $l0,5 was raised.
This leaves a balance Of $4500 yet TO be
raised before the church can be COM
pleted, and committee will solicit for
that amount during the coming week.
Those upon whom the committee wait
should place their names on the list, since
the objec is laudable and the church will
be grsa addit on to the community.
The locality in which the church
will be built is central, and fer the
purpose no better could be found.
The fac. that $40. $50 has alrea y been
subscr.bed gives assurance that the
remaining $500 will not remain want
ing long. Rev. DR.. Pendleton made
an eloquent appeal yesterday to his
congre CATION, and US the meetings lad
been held in place no longer suitable,
his appeal was timely. The project
had been under way for some time, but
beyond discussion it never reached the
stage when it might be considered as
certainty until the conclusion of the
services yesterday. 1t is understood
that the building will be very comfort.
able and in the modern style of church
architecture, capable of seating more
people than other churches of the same
denomination in this county. This is
necessary, for as the population in.
creases, the membership will grow, and
in few years it will not be any too
large to accommodate its members.
